9545 Background: Ipilimumab is a fully-human IgG1 monoclonal anti-CTLA-4 antibody which has been approved by the FDA for adult patients with metastatic melanoma . Although the approved dose is 3mg/kg every 21 days, the dose of 10mg/kg IV every 21 days for 4 doses in combination with chemotherapy was well tolerated in a phase III trial enrolling adult patients with melanoma. Methods: This pediatric phase I, dose escalation study examined the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and immunogenicity of ipilimumab administered to patients <21yo with recurrent or progressive solid tumors. Ipilimumab was administered at 1, 3, 5, and 10mg/kg IV in a standard 3 + 3 design with 4 doses of induction therapy q3 weeks followed by maintenance q3 months until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Tumors were measured after 6 weeks, 12 weeks, and then every 3 months. Results: Twenty one patients (melanoma n=6, osteosarcoma n=6, soft tissue sarcomas n=7, neuroblastoma, and renal cell carcinoma) received a total of 57 doses of Ipilimumab to date. One of 6 patients treated at 5mg/kg developed a dose-limiting grade 3 pancreatitis. .At the highest dose level of 10mg/kg, two of three patients under 12yo developed DLT: grade 3 colitis and concurrent norovirus in one patient, and self-resolving grade 3 transaminitis in a second patient. Three of three patients between the ages of 12 and 21yo tolerated the 10mg/kg dosing schedule without DLT. Across all dose levels, grade 2 or 3 adverse events included colitis (n=1), transaminitis (n=3), pancreatitis (n=1), autoimmune thyroiditis (n=2), and hypophysitis (n=1) observed between C1D8 and C4D21. A single grade 1 rash was observed. Stable disease was the best response in 5 patients with a duration of 3 to 18 months. Conclusions: Ipilimumab can be safely administered to pediatric patients. Adolescents are able to tolerate the highest dose of 10mg/kg. Younger children (<12yo) had 2 DLTs in 3 patients at 10 mg/kg . Expansion of the 10 mg/kg cohort for adolescents and of the 5 mg/kg dose for the <12yo for further safety and pharmacokinetic information is underway. The spectrum of adverse events appears similar to those described in the adult trials, although there were no grade 2 or higher incidents of rash.

10020 Background: Low-dose metronomic topotecan (mTP) represents a novel approach to chemotherapy delivery which, in preclinical models, may work synergistically with pazopanib (PZ) in targeting angiogenesis. This study was designed to determine the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of mTP/PZ in pediatric patients with solid tumors, while describing the safety and toxicity of this regimen. Methods: A phase I dose-escalation, pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) study of mTP/PZ was conducted at ten sites across Canada, enrolling pediatric patients aged 2-21 years with relapsed/refractory solid tumors. Patients were treated with oral mTP and PZ suspension daily without interruption in 28-day cycles, with dose escalation in accordance with the rolling-six design. Five dose levels (0.12/125, 0.16/125, 0.22/125, 0.22/160, and 0.3/160 mg/m2/day of mTP/PZ) were evaluated. PK studies were performed on day 1 and at steady state, and PD studies included circulating angiogenic factors VEGFR1, VEGFR2, VEGF, endoglin and placental growth factor. Results: Thirty patients (pts) were enrolled, of whom 26 were evaluable for dose-limiting toxicity (DLT), with median age 12 years (3-20). The most common diagnoses included osteosarcoma (8), neuroblastoma (NB, 7), Ewing sarcoma/PNET (4), and rhabdomyosarcoma (4). The most common grade 3/4 adverse events (AEs) related to protocol therapy were neutropenia (18%), thrombocytopenia (11%), lymphocytopenia (11%), AST elevation (11%), and lipase elevation (11%). Only 2 cycle-1 DLTs were observed on study, both at the 0.3/160 mg/m2 mTP/PZ dose level (2/5 pts) comprising persistent grade 3 thrombocytopenia and grade 3 ALT elevation. No AEs experienced beyond cycle-1 required treatment discontinuation. Best response was stable disease in 10/25 pts (40%) for a median duration of 6.4 months (1.7-45.1). One patient with refractory NB achieved stable disease for 45 months and continued on mTP/PZ via compassionate access after study closure. PK and PD results are pending at this time. Conclusions: The combination of oral mTP and PZ is safe and tolerable in pediatric patients with solid tumors, with a RP2D of mTP 0.22 mg/m2/day and PZ suspension 160 mg/m2/day. Ten patients achieved stable disease for a median of 6 months. The lack of objective responses suggests that this combination is likely of limited benefit for relapsed disease, but may play a role as maintenance therapy. Clinical trial information: NCT02303028.

3022 Background: Activation of the Src kinase pathway has been observed in about 50% of cancers of the colon, liver, lung, breast and pancreas. Ceppi, et al, explored that Src inhibitors might be synergistic in combination with pemetrexed. Bosutinib is an approved oral ATP-competitive Bcr-Abl tyrosine-kinase inhibitor with an inhibitory effect on Src kinases. Methods: In this phase 1, dose-escalation study, we enrolled 10 patients with advanced metastatic solid tumors who progressed on standard of care chemotherapy, 9 of whom were evaluable, to receive bosutinib and pemetrexed. Bosutinib was administered once daily in a 3 + 3 dose-escalation study design where the first cohort started at an oral dose of 200 mg daily with I.V. pemetrexed 500 mg/m2 on a three weekly schedule. The primary objective was to determine the dose-limiting toxicity (DLT), and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of bosutinib with pemetrexed, and the type and frequency of adverse events. Secondary objective(s) were to estimate tumor response rate (RR), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS). Results: All patients had progressed on prior chemotherapy and included 9 patients with adenocarcinoma of the lung, and 1 patient with metastatic adenocarcinoma of the appendix. Two patients (22%) had prior pemetrexed exposure. Median age was 62 years (range, 58-44). The median number of bosutinib and pemetrexed cycles received was 2 (range, 1-4). Nine patients were evaluable. The MTD of bosutinib was 300 mg daily in this combination as 2 out of the 3 patients who received 400 mg experienced elevated liver transaminases (>CTCAE Grade 3) and one patient experienced grade 3 fatigue. Two patients (22%) had a partial response, and 6 patients (67%) had stable disease, including 2 patients with prior pemetrexed exposure, and 1 patient had disease progression. The two responders and the subject with the longest stable disease duration demonstrated Src overexpression on immunohistochemical staining of their tumor. Two patients died of sepsis; both had stable disease. Median PFS was 4.1 months (range, 1.2-11.6), and the median OS was 11.9 months (range, 4-36.7). Adverse events included pneumonia/sepsis, diarrhea, fatigue, rash, weakness, transaminitis, hypertension, and thrombocytopenia. Conclusions: The MTD of oral bosutinib was 300 mg daily in combination with pemetrexed 500 mg/m2 every 3 weeks. Despite the limitations of this phase I study there appears potential efficacy of this combination in pretreated patients. We are currently enrolling patients in the expansion cohort. Clinical trial information: NCT03023319.

3592 Background: Sunitinib malate (SU) is an oral, multitargeted tyrosine kinase inhibitor of VEGFRs, PDGFRs, KIT, RET, and FLT3, approved internationally for the treatment of advanced RCC and imatinib-resistant or -intolerant GIST. This phase I study assesses the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (PK) of SU in combination with capecitabine (C). Methods: Pts with advanced solid tumors not amenable to curative therapy, previously treated with =2 prior chemotherapy regimens, and ECOG PS =1 were eligible. Prior antiangiogenic therapy was not permitted. Three SU schedules were evaluated: 4 wks on treatment followed by 2 wks off in 6-wk cycles (4/2 schedule); 2 wks on followed by 1 wk off in 3-wk cycles (2/1 schedule), and continuous dosing (CD schedule). In all cases C was administered orally bid on days 1–14. SU and C doses were alternately escalated in serial pt cohorts to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of SU for all schedules using a standard 3 + 3 design. PK and antitumor efficacy were also assessed. Results: A total of 50 pts have been enrolled; 28 pts have been treated on the 4/2 schedule: SU 50 mg + C 1,000 mg/m2, and SU 37.5 mg + C 1,250 mg/m2 were not tolerated. Dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) included: grade 3 myalgia (n=1), grade 3 fatigue (n=2), and grade 3 hand- foot syndrome (n=2). The MTD for the 4/2 schedule was SU 37.5 mg/day + C 1,000 mg/m2. No DLTs nor dose reductions were observed among 9 pts treated at the MTD. Preliminary PK data do not indicate drug-drug interactions between SU and C. 3 pts (1 each with breast cancer, neuroendocrine carcinoma, and thyroid carcinoma) achieved confirmed partial responses. On the 2/1 schedule patients are being accrued to SU 37.5 or 50 mg + C 1,000 mg/m2 and doses of SU 37.5 mg + C 1,000 mg/m2 or SU 25 mg + C 1,250 mg/m2 are being explored on the CD schedule. Conclusions: The combination of SU 37.5 mg/day (4/2 schedule) with C 1,000 mg/m2 in pts with advanced solid tumors appears tolerable. SU may be administered in combination with C with no apparent drug-drug interaction. Subsequent cohorts will define the MTD of SU administered on the 2/1 and CD schedules. Further studies of this combination in breast cancer are warranted. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

3586 Background: The insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-IR), a tyrosine kinase, and its ligands (IGF-I & -2) are upregulated in many human tumors (e.g., breast, prostate, colon and non-small cell lung cancer) and enhance proliferative and prosurvival signaling. Inhibition of IGF-IR activation in tumor models suppresses tumor growth and increases tumor sensitivity to chemotherapy, supporting the development of agents targeting IGF-IR. CP-751,871 is a potent, highly specific, fully humanized, monoclonal antibody that inhibits IGF-IR autophosphorylation and induces receptor internalization. Methods: A Phase I dose escalation study was initiated to define the safety and tolerability, and to characterize the pharmacokinetic properties of CP-751,871 in patients with advanced solid tumors refractory to standard therapies. Results: Following informed consent and screening, a total of 24 patients with refractory solid tumors (e.g. colorectal, NSCLC, sarcoma and prostate cancer; 1–6 previous regimens) were enrolled. Patients received 3 to 20 mg/kg of CP-751,871 by IV infusion on Day 1 of 3-week cycles in four dose-escalation cohorts of 3 patients. No dose limiting toxicities were identified and the maximum feasible dose (MFD) cohort of 20 mg/kg was extended with 12 additional patients. No higher than grade 3 CTCAE v3.0 toxicities, attributed to study drug, have been so far reported. Grade 3 toxicities, all reported in patients dosed with 20 mg/kg of CP-751,871, are increased GGT (4%) and fatigue (4%). Grade 2 toxicities include: anorexia (7%), diarrhea (7%), increased GGT (4%), hyperglycemia (4%), fatigue (4%), increased urinary frequency (4%), nausea (4%), increased ALT (4%) and increased AST (4%). Pharmacokinetic analysis is currently ongoing. No objective responses were observed. At the MFD, patients received a median of 4 cycles (1–16). Three patients were stable for > 6 months and one patient, currently at cycle 16, remains on study. An additional cohort of 12 adrenocortical cancer patients is under evaluation. Conclusions: These data indicate that CP-751,871 is safe and well tolerated. Due to its good safety profile, CP-751,871 may constitute a suitable targeted agent to use in combination with approved therapies in multiple tumor types.

2550 Background: Aldoxorubicin is a novel drug that covalently binds to albumin in the circulation with release in low pH environments. Preclinical studies in pancreatic and ovarian tumor xenograft models demonstrated that aldoxorubicin plus doxorubicin administered at 50% of their MTD provided complete and prolonged tumor remission in these models with less toxicity than each drug administered at their MTD. We evaluated the toxicity profile of a fixed dose of doxorubicin and escalating doses of aldoxorubicin in subjects with advanced solid tumors. Methods: Phase 1b open label, dose-escalation study of aldoxorubicin administered at either 175, 240 or 320 mg/m2 (130, 180, or 240 mg/m2 doxorubicin equivalents) iv + 35 mg/m2doxorubicin iv, both on Day 1 of 21 day cycles, for up to 8 cycles. The MTD is the dose level immediately below where 2/6 subjects experience a dose limiting toxicity (DLT) , or the maximum dose of 320 mg/m2aldoxorubicin. Additional subjects may be enrolled at the MTD to provide more safety data. Results: 10 subjects have been treated as of January 21, 2013. No DLT was observed and the MTD was defined as 320 mg/m2 aldoxorubicin and 35 mg/m2 doxorubicin iv administered on Day 1 of 21 day cycles. A median of 4.5 cycles have been received. 3/10 subjects were terminated due to either progressive disease (2) or death (1). No subject was terminated due to an adverse event. Grade 3 or 4 neutropenia was seen at all dose levels (8/10 subjects). 4/10 subjects exhibited grade 3 or 4 thrombocytopenia and 3/10 subjects had grade 3 or 4 anemia. Neutropenic fever occurred in 3/10 subjects. Other grade 3/4 adverse events seen in 2 or fewer subjects included fatigue, increased liver enzymes and dehydration. No significant mucositis or cardiotoxicity was observed. At this time the best response has been stable disease in 6/10 subjects and a partial response in 1 subject (malignant fibrous histiocytoma). Conclusions: The combination of aldoxorubicin (320 mg/m2)) + doxorubicin (35 mg/m2) can be safely administered to subjects with solid tumors. Hematologic toxicity is common and can be controlled with growth factors. The dose of aldoxorubicin is 90% of the MTD of aldoxorubicin administered as a single agent. Thus, doxorubicin does not appear to add to the toxicity of this combination. Clinical trial information: NCT01673438.

6047 Background: SC10914 is a highly selective inhibitor of PARP enzymes, including PARP1 and PARP2. SC10914 has a similar structure with olaparib. We conducted a phase I study to assess the safety, tolerability, PK/PD and preliminary efficacy of SC10914 in patients with advanced solid tumors. Methods: This is a phase I dose-escalation study with 3+3 design, we enrolled patients at 4 sites in China. Eligible patients were diagnosed with advanced solid malignancies who are refractory to standard therapies or for which no standard therapy exists; had measurable disease; had adequate organ function. Patients received SC10914 daily at ten escalating doses from 30 mg QD to 500 mg TID in a 28-day cycle. We obtained blood for PK and CA125 assessments. Toxic effects were assessed by CTCAE 4.03 criteria and tumour responses ascribed by RECIST 1.1 and CA125 was assessed by GCIG criteria. Results: As of January 2020, 52 patients were enrolled, of which 14 were males and 38 were females. Ten doses were escalated to 500mg TID, and no DLT was observed, and MTD was not obtained. The incidence of grade 3/4 AEs and SAEs that were related to SC10914 were 34.6% (18/52) and 13.5% (7/52). Grade 3/4 adverse reaction happened in at least two patients were anaemia/reduced hemoglobin (10/52, 19.2%), decreased WBC count (5/52, 9.6%), neutropenia (3/52, 5.8%), thrombocytopenia (2/52, 3.8%), and decreased lymphocyte count (2/52, 3.8%). A total of 17 gBRCAm evaluable ovarian cancer patients were enrolled, 6 of them had PR, the ORR was 35.3% (6/17). 10 gBRCAm ovarian cancer patients were enrolled in TID groups (including 2 patients who received BID doses at the beginning and changed to 300 mg TID dose after several cycles of treatment), 5 of them had PR, the ORR was 50% (5/10). The ORR of 400 mg TID group was 66.7%(4/6). PK data showed that the exposure of SC10914 was increased with dose increasing at the dose of 30 mg to 250 mg. The half-life of SC10914 was about 2-5 hours. Conclusions: SC10914 was safe in patients with advanced solid tumors. The main toxicity was blood-related adverse reactions. SC10914 was effective in gBRCAm ovarian cancer patients. 400 mg TID might be RP2D. Clinical trial information: NCT02940132.

9017 Background: Bevacizumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody targeting the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF-A) that has demonstrated significant growth inhibition in several pre-clinical models of pediatric solid tumors. However, the agent has never been tested in pediatric patients. Methods: A phase I dose escalation study in children with refractory solid tumors was conducted to define the dose limiting toxicities (DLTs), and to determine the pharmacokinetics (PK) and recommended phase II dose of bevacizumab administered by IV infusion every 2 weeks in 28-day cycles. Cohorts were enrolled at dose levels of 5, 10, and 15 mg/kg; the final dose level was expanded to include at least 3 children <6 years of age. Serial blood samples were collected for PK, plasma VEGF concentration, and circulating mature and progenitor endothelial cells (CECs/CEPs). Results: 20 patients (10 male), median age 13 yrs (range 1–21), were enrolled at dose levels 5 (n=3), 10 (n=3), and 15 (n=14) mg/kg. 18 patients were fully evaluable for toxicity (one withdrew consent prior to treatment and the second was removed for rapid disease progression). A total of 67 cycles were administered with a median of 3 per patient (range 1–16). Treatment was well tolerated and no DLTs were observed. Only one grade 3 toxicity, lymphopenia, was attributed to drug. Non-dose limiting, grade 1–2 toxicities included infusional reaction (n=3), rash (n=3), mucositis (n=2), and proteinuria (n=3). There was no hypertension, hemorrhage or thrombosis reported. There were no partial or complete responses; 3 pts with Ewings and 2 pts with soft tissue sarcoma had disease stabilization for > 3 months. The serum exposure to bevacizumab as measured by AUC appeared to increase in proportion to dose. The median clearance of bevacizumab was 4.1 ml/day/kg (range 3.2–15.9), and the median T1/2 was 11.8 days (range 3.9–14.6). In some patients, a rapid rate of rise in plasma VEGF, increase in mature CECs or decrease in CEPs was observed. Conclusion: Bevacizumab at doses up to 15mg/kg every two weeks is well tolerated in children with solid tumors. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

3504 Background: Bcl-2 is a rational target in SCLC since it is overexpressed in 60%-90% of tumors and may play a role in resistance of SCLC to chemotherapy. Obatoclax is a small molecule BH3 mimetic that blocks bcl-2 binding to proapoptotic family members. Obatoclax has growth inhibitory effects in several solid tumor cell lines and xenografts, with at least additive effects in combination with topotecan. The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the safety profile and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of obatoclax plus topotecan in patients with relapsed SCLC and other solid tumors. Methods: We conducted a phase I dose escalation study using a standard “3+3” design. Obatoclax was administered at 14 or 20 mg/m2 over 3 hours on day 1 every 21 days. A subsequent cohort received obatoclax 14mg/m2 on days 1 and 3. Topotecan was given at 1.25 mg/m2 days 1–5. All patients received pegfilgrastim on day 8. Eligible patients were adults with solid tumors appropriate for treatment with topotecan. Patients with neurologically stable, treated brain mets were eligible. Results: 14 patients have been treated including 8 SCLC, 3 extrapulmonary small cell, 1 carcinoid, 1 Merkel cell and 1 melanoma previously treated with 1 or 2 lines of chemotherapy. Nearly all patients experienced neurologic toxicities during the obatoclax infusion which included ataxia, dysarthria, somnolence and/or mood alteration; these typically resolved 1–2 hours after completion of the infusion. The MTD of obatoclax was 20 mg/m2 on day 1 with Dose Limiting Toxicities (DLT) including grade 3 neurotoxicity (2 pts) and febrile neutropenia. Hematologic toxicity included grade 3/4 anemia (6 pts), thrombocytopenia (5 pts) and neutropenia (5 pts). Other toxicities included mild nausea/vomiting, fatigue, pruritus, and constipation. Clinical activity was seen in patients with SCLC including 1 PR and 4 SD out of 7 evaluable. The median TTP for these SCLC patients was 11 weeks. Conclusions: The recommended phase II dose is obatoclax 14 mg/m2 on days 1 and 3 with topotecan 1.25 mg/m2 on days 1–5 in 21 day cycles. A phase II study in second-line SCLC is open. Supported by NCI U01-CA69856. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

490 Background: Everolimus (E), an oral rapamycin analogue, is a potent mTOR inhibitor. Combined inhibition of VEGF and mTOR pathways may increase anti-angiogenic and anti-tumor activity. We evaluated E in combination with capecitabine (C), oxaliplatin (O), and bevacizumab (B) in a phase I dose escalation study. Methods: Eligible patients (pts) had advanced solid tumors, adequate organ function and no increased risk for class-related toxicities. B and O were given intravenously; C and E were orally administered. Cycle length was 21 days. Doses for level 1: C 850 mg/m2 on days 1-14; O 130 mg/m2 on day one; B 7.5 mg/kg on day one; and E 5 mg three times a week. Doses for level -1: C 680 mg/m2, O100mg/m2. An intermediate dose level (-1b) of E escalated to 5 mg five times weekly was added to maximize dose intensity. Dose limiting toxicity (DLT) was assessed in cycle 1. Concomitant administration of CYP3A4 substrates, inhibitors or inducers was prohibited. Results: Dose escalation is complete with 27 pts evaluable for toxicity and 24 evaluable for efficacy. Two DLTs (grade 2 intolerable fatigue, anorexia, vomiting and grade 3 diarrhea) were observed in 6 pts in cohort 1. No DLTs were observed in cohort -1; one DLT (rectovaginal fistula) was observed in the -1b cohort. Possible grade ≥3 treatment-related adverse events any time on study (n=1 except as indicated) included diarrhea (n=2), intestinal perforation/fistula, rectovaginal fistula, hypertriglyceridemia (n=3), hyperglycemia, hypoalbuminemia, hyponatremia, peripheral neuropathy, neutropenia (n=2), lymphopenia, thrombocytopenia, hypertension (n=3), deep vein thrombosis, and arterial thrombosis. Adverse events were consistent with known class-related toxicities. For efficacy, 10 pts had a partial response (PR); 10 had stable disease as best response. Of 13 pts with chemorefractory metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC), 5 had a PR. Of 8 pts with chemonaive mCRC, 5 had a PR. Conclusions: E in combination with full dose C, O and B was associated with unacceptable toxicity, primarily GI toxicity. E at 5mg five times weekly, C at 680 mg/m2 on days 1-14, O at 100 mg/m2 and B at 7.5 mg/kg on day one appears well tolerated. Activity was noted in chemorefractory and chemonaive mCRC patients.

162 Background: Cabazitaxel (Cbz) is a novel taxane with broad in vivo efficacy in taxane-sensitive and -resistant tumors. Clinical activity of Cbz was confirmed in the Phase III TROPIC trial ( NCT00417079 ); Cbz significantly improved overall survival compared with mitoxantrone in patients (pts) with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer whose disease had progressed during or after a prior docetaxel-containing regimen. Therapeutic synergism of Cbz/cisplatin (Cis) has been demonstrated in tumor-bearing mice. Methods: The primary objective in part 1 of this Phase I study ( NCT00925743 ) was to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) of Cbz/Cis. Secondary objectives were safety, pharmacokinetics (PK) and efficacy. The primary objective of part 2 was to determine the antitumor activity at the MTD. Eligible pts were ≥ 18 yrs, ECOG PS ≤ 1, with confirmed metastatic or unresectable solid tumors for which Cis therapy was considered appropriate. A 3 + 3 dose escalation with a starting dose (level 0) of 20/75 mg/m2 (Cbz/Cis), administered IV Q3W, was used. The MTD was the highest dose at which 0/3 or ≤ 1/6 pts experienced a DLT in Cycle 1. Results: Pts (N = 25; 10 in part 1; 15 in part 2) with a median age of 56 yrs were enrolled. The most frequent primary tumors were lung (n = 4), prostate, ovary and pancreas (each n = 2). 2 of 6 evaluable pts experienced a DLT at dose level 0 (Grade 3 acute renal failure; febrile neutropenia). The MTD was 15/75 mg/m2 as no DLTs were observed. Eighteen pts were treated at the MTD and 60 cycles were administered (median = 3; range 1–8). The most frequent non-hematologic treatment-related adverse events (all Grade/Grade 3–4) were nausea (78%/22%), vomiting (72%/11%), fatigue (61%/17%), anorexia (67%/11%) and diarrhea (44%/0%). Incidence of Grade 3–4 neutropenia was 78% and 1 pt had febrile neutropenia. No PK interactions between Cbz and Cis were observed. Stable disease was seen in 11 pts. No objective responses were reported. Conclusions: The MTD of Cbz/Cis was 15/75 mg/m2. The combination had a manageable safety profile consistent with that of a platinum/taxane combination. No PK interactions were seen. Further investigations into the combined treatment combination are planned.
